Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for producing N-chlorosulfenyl compounds of the formula ##STR3## in which R 1 is C 1 -C 8 -alkyl, C 1 -C 8 -alkoxycarbonyl, C 1 -C 8 -alkoxycarbonyl-C 1 -C 6 -alkyl or 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran-7-yloxycarbonyl, and R 2 is C 1 -C 8 -alkyl or C 1 -C 8 -alkoxycarbonyl-C 1 -C 6 -alkyl.
- N-chlorosulfenyl compounds of the formula I are intermediates for producing N,N-sulfides which are distinguished by a marked insecticidal and acaricidal action.
- active substances of this kind are for example: 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran-7-yl-N-methyl-N-(N-methyl-N-butoxycarbonylaminosulfenyl)-carbamate, 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran-7-yl-N-methyl-N-(N,N-dibutylaminosulfenyl)-carbamate and 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran-7-yl-N-methyl-N-(N-ethoxycarbonylethyl-N-isopropylaminosulfenyl)-carbamate.
- Such insecticidal active substances, the production thereof and their use are described for example in the British Patent Specification Nos.
- N-chlorosulfenyl compounds can be produced from carbamates by dissolving the carbamate and the essentially equivalent amount of sulfur dichloride in an inert solvent, for example methylene chloride, and feeding into this solution a base, for example pyridine, in controlled amounts. After completion of the reaction, the hydrochloride of the base is filtered off; the solvent is then distilled off and the crude product purified by distillation (cp. U.S. Pat. No. 3,843,688).
- an inert solvent for example methylene chloride
- N-chlorosulfenyl compounds from carbamoyl halides by taking the carbamoyl halide and sulfur dichloride in a molar ratio of 1:2, and introducing into this mixture, with cooling, a base, such as a tert-alkylamine, pyridine or lutidine. After the reaction has finished, the bulk of the unreacted sulfur dichloride is distilled off, and from the residue is then obtained a crude product by further distillation, this product containing, besides the desired N-chlorosulfenylcarbamoyl halide, considerable amounts of sulfur monochloride (S 2 Cl 2 ) and a small amount of sulfur dichloride.
- S 2 Cl 2 sulfur monochloride
- N-chlorosulfenyl compounds can be produced from dialkylamines by firstly converting a dialkylamine by reaction with sulfur monochloride into the corresponding N,N-disulfide, and subsequently converting this by reaction with a chlorinating agent, such as chlorine or sulfuryl chloride, into the corresponding dialkylaminosulfenyl chloride (cp. European Patent Application No. 0,051,273).
- N-chlorosulfenyl compounds of the formula I is suggested, which is based on the reaction of an amino compound of the formula II ##STR4## in which R 1 and R 2 have the meanings defined under the formula I, with sulfur dichloride, which process comprises performing the reaction of the amino compound of the formula II with sulfur dichloride at 10°-60° C., in excess sulfur dichloride as solvent and in the absence of a base, and obtaining the N-chlorosulfenyl compound of the formula I by evaporating off the unreacted sulfur dichloride.
- the process according to the invention is advantageously performed by taking the sulfur dichloride and slowly adding the amino compound of the formula II in controlled amounts.
- the excess of sulfur dichloride can vary within wide limits, with no critical upper limit existing with regard to the technical practicability of the process. The limit is therefore determined primarily by economic factors.
- temperatures of 25°-50° C. and especially temperatures of 30°-40° C. are preferred.
- the distilling off of the excess sulfur dichloride can be performed at normal pressure or under reduced pressure.
- sulfur dichloride boiling point: 59° C.
- sulfur monochloride S 2 Cl 2 ; boiling point: 139° C.
- chlorine it is advantageous to distill off the excess sulfur dichloride at the lowest possible temperature under reduced pressure, for example under a pressure of 100-300 mbar.
- the sulfur dichloride distilled off from the reaction mixture can be recycled and used for a further reaction with an amino compound of the formula II. Since also with distillation under reduced pressure, the sulfur dichloride partially decomposes into sulfur monochloride and chlorine, it is necessary before recycling to treat the resulting distillate with a chlorinating agent, such as chlorine gas or sulfuryl chloride, in order to convert the sulfur monochloride present into sulfur dichloride. For this chlorination it is also possible to re-use the chlorine formed during decomposition of sulfur dichloride.
- a chlorinating agent such as chlorine gas or sulfuryl chloride
- N-chlorosulfenyl compounds of the formula I obtained after the excess sulfur dichloride has been distilled off are already of high purity, and can therefore as a rule be used directly for further reaction to give an insecticidal active substance. If necessary, however, the N-chlorosulfenyl compounds of the formula I can also be purified by distillation before they are further processed.
- the process according to the invention can be carried out either discontinuously (batchwise) or continuously. It is suitable in particular for continous operation since the sulfur dichloride distilled off from the reaction mixture can be recycled, after a chlorination treatment, for further use in the process.
- the process according to the invention is suitable for producing the N-chlorosulfenyl compounds of the formula I on a commercial scale in a simple manner and in good yield and quality.
- the process according to the invention is distinguished particularly by the simplicity of the further processing of the reaction mixture obtained after completion of the reaction of an amino compound of the formula II with excess sulfur dichloride. This further processing is limited to a simple distillation since neither a salt of a base nor an organic solvent has to be separated off. The recovery, necessary in the prior known processes, of the base used as an acid-binding agent, and also the purification of the base and of the organic solvent, are thus avoided.
- n-butyl-(N-methyl-N-chlorosulfenyl)-carbamate obtained as residue is purified by distillation under high vacuum (0.5 mbar; 74°-76° C.). There are obtained 255.0 kg of 97-98% pure n-butyl-(N-methyl-N-chlorosulfenyl)-carbamate, the yield being 85% of theory, relative to the employed n-butyl-N-methyl carbamate.
